some rare specimens of this beautiful flower mingled

In this statement only the legal tenders not
held by the Treasury are included. The amount
Of silver dollars in use is slightly larger now
than it was August !, though smaller than in
December The decrease in bank notes has
been about ten millions since January /. and
about twenty millions since August l. This
has been made good by the increase in gold
certificates. now $l93OOO00 more than Au-
gust l and by the small increase in standard
dollars. 1t may bc added that the stock OF
gold coin in actual circulation. though not
exactly known. is certainly larger by several
millions than it was eight months ago. Thus
it appears that, exclusive of the silver notes
the volume of circulation is greater now than
il WAS last summer when immense reserves
inv idle in the hanks. But since that time
the Treasury has put out of silver certificates
Sl44oO. 100 more than II has taken in, and
considerable proportion of tic notes put out
have been of small denominations. Thus the
volume of paper currency has been much en-
largcd and its character has been changed by
an extraordinary addition TO the number of
small notes in circulation.
The revenue during the month OF March
was larger than in any other month for scvcrai
wears amounting to $33,35S, 165 80. against
$50 O76, 16S O3 for the same month last year.

UhlO at least, they appear TO be badly mixed
The Labor vote played great part and dis
turbed all calculations. At late hour it was
known that Cleveland had been carried by the
Democrats and that the Labor candidate,
Stevenson. had been elected Mayor of Gin
cinnad In Columbus the Democrats elected
their candidates, as was expected. In regard
TO Michigan it can only be said that the cities
were heavily against Prohibition.
The baseball season opened here yesterday
under most suspicious circumstances, and once
more the popularity Of the sport was illustrated.
When 1000 people turn out TO see game
between two mines of the same club. the result
of which has no possible meaning, the local
interest in baseball in the abstract must be
great indeed. Perhaps the crowd was drawn
to the Polo Grounds partly by desire to watch
the workings of the new rules which were
observed for the first time. They did not
meet with favor. The game is not simplified
thereby, but much drawn out. Moreover, the
restrictions on the pitchers will soon I'LL the
hospitals with them, while the burdens on the
catchers are in no way ightencd.
The Interstate Commerce Commission will
certainly find work to do, judging by the
number of people and corporations that have
already besought it not to apply the "long and
short haul clause to their cases. From
North and South and West portland, Oegon)
comes the same demand The Portland people
have made an especially strong statement,
pointing out the competition which lines end
ing at its doors are subject to on account OF
the Canadian Pacific Railway. No decisions
on these requests were reached yesterday /;
but il was announced that for the present the
express companies must consider that the law
applied to them as well as TO the other common
carriers of the country.
The hearing on the High-License bill before
the Governor yesterday drew out notable
crowd of liquor men. thrd-paty Prohibition
lists and sincere advocates of temperance. A
great deal was said by the liquor-deacrs and
their new friends against the measure, and by
ten,pcrance Democrats and Republicans in it's
favor; but after all, the speeches furnished
merely rccapitulation OF the arguments with
which the public. and the Governor too, arc
already familiar. Possibly Mr. I'LL lett I'M
comfortable during the appeal OF certain Dem
ocrats that he should not identify their party
with rumselling by vetOing the bill ana
amused by the assertion of ono OF the liquor
dealers that something to drink was a great
boon to poor men, who ought TO be allowed 70
buy It cheap But il nothing new in argument
was developed. the hearing has at least made
It evident TO the Governor and to every voter
that High License is demanded by all that is
good and reasonable in the State.

Tons Of Pork Burned.

By the explosion of tank of lard
Sunday morning in the Chicago Pack
ing and Provision Company's works.
which cover six acres of ground, four of
the largest buildings were burned. The
msn building was 300X75 feet. In it a
portion of the killing was done, and the
hanging, cutting, packing, curing and
other work incidental to a Strengthening
establishment. Except the curing room,
i'm which there were $4,000, 900 pounds
short ribs, the main building and its
contents are total loss. The curing
room, 100xl50 feet and four stories
high, lost its roof, but some fire-walls
saved its contents, portion OF them IN
a roasted condition. On the east side OF
the main building was the warehouses
l20x400 feet, with four stories and a
basement. The two upper floors at the
south end were used for killing pur-
poses. In the warehouse were 1900
barrels of mess pork belonging TO Ar
mour & Co. The building and much of
the pork was wholly destroyed. About
5000 live hogs were in the building
when the fire started, but the company's
employees succeeded in getting most Of
them out. Between 600 and 700 hogs
were burned alive in the building.
Back of the main building was the fer
tilizing factory, 100 feet square, and the
eugine-house, 50x95 feet. Both struct-
urcs were burned completely.
Perhaps the most exciting scene of
the day was presented when the men,
who were attempting to drive through
the covered runaways the live hogs in
the upper stories, were forced by the
flames to desist. Below were scores Of
workmen rolling out barrels of pork
Down on the crowd, pellmell leaped
dozens of affrightened animals from the
windows, or sprang through the open
hatchways. The men who had braved
the flames fled from the falling hogs'
and at distance watched for glimpses Of
the squealing brutes, that crazed with
pain, were rushing madly about in their
tall prison Of fire. The losses will reach
altogether 81 ,25O, 900, on which there is
a large insurance.

a Town Destroyed.

Fire almost swept the town of Marsh
field, Wisconsin, out of existence Mon
day afternoon, and two thousand people
are homeless. The loss is not less than
s3,000,0 900. A locomotive spark started
the blaze at noon in the lumber yard of
the Upham Furniture Factory and it
rapidly developed into roaring fire
that spread toward the town. INSULT
cient fire protection facilities prevented
any resistance to the flames, and soon
several flourishing factories, the bust
ness blocks along the main street and
adjoining residences were wrapped in
flames. The people gathered such house
hold effects as they could and fled to the
woods. Twelve buildings were blown
up with dynamite in vain effort to
check the flames.
Conductor Grayson said that the only
thing to be seen at Marshfield from
where the depot used to stand was one
house and an eXpanse of blackened
ruins, with here and there rem ;ants of
smoke stack and some warped and
twisted machinery TO show where mill
had stood. He describes the. scene as
one of awful desolation, hardly relieved
by the presence of human beings, as
everybody had left or was leaving as
fast as possible. Great distress prevails
among the homeless people.
